Masquerade by L'Ame Immortelle:

My only friend was solitude

And only darkness seemed to care

So I forged this dreadful mask

That I am cursed to wear

Now everyday it’s staring at me

Hanging from the wall

“Without me you are useless!”

“Without me you will fall!”

Now I’m scared and I’m afraid

Of the roles that I have played

Of vows I broke and vows I made

It`s time to end this masquerade

“Without me noone loves you!”

“Without me you’re alone!”

I cannot live without you

I can’t be on my own

When I wear you day by day

I am a king, come what may

But I know that some day

I will know the price to pay

I see it clearly now - the end

It’s time to say goodbye my friend

I have to live as who I’d be

Without a mask protecting me

... :wub:

Goo Goo Dolls - Iris:

Verse 1

And I'd give up forever to touch you

Cause I know that you feel me somehow

You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be

And I don't want to go home right now

Verse 2

And all I can taste is this moment

And all I can breathe is your life

Cause sooner or later it's over

I just don't want to miss you tonight

Chorus

And I don't want the world to see me

Cause I don't think that they'd understand

When everything's made to be broken

I just want you to know who I am

Verse 3

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming

Or the moment of truth in your lies

When everything seems like the movies

Yeah you bleed just to know your alive

Chorus

And I don't want the world to see me

Cause I don't think that they'd understand

When everything's made to be broken

I just want you to know who I am

Chorus

I don't want the world to see me

Cause I don't think that they'd understand

When everything's made to be broken

I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am

None of you have probably ever heard of this song, but it has some of the most amazing lyrics I know.

Stained Glass Masquerade - Casting Crowns

Is there anyone that fails

Is there anyone that falls

Am I the only one in church today feelin’ so small

'Cause when I take a look around

Everybody seems so strong

I know they’ll soon discover

That I don’t belong

So I tuck it all away, like everything’s okay

If I make them all believe it, maybe I’ll believe it, too

So with a painted grin, I play the part again

So everyone will see me the way that I see them

Chorus

Are we happy plastic people

Under shiny plastic steeples

With walls around our weakness

And smiles to hide our pain

But if the invitation’s open

To every heart that has been broken

Maybe then we close the curtain

On our stained glass masquerade

Is there anyone who’s been there

Are there any hands to raise

Am I the only one who’s traded

In the altar for a stage

The performance is convincing

And we know every line by heart

Only when no one is watching

Can we really fall apart

But would it set me free

If I dared to let you see

The truth behind the person

That you imagine me to be

Would your arms be open

Or would you walk away

Would the love of Jesus

Be enough to make you stay

Chorus (x2)

Well if the invitation’s open

To every heart that has been broken

Maybe then we close the curtain

On our stained glass masquerade

Is there anyone that fails

Is there anyone that falls

Am I the only one in church today feelin’ so small

Heaven - originally Bryan Adams (I'm a huge fan of the DJ Sammy trance/techno cover).

Oh, thinking about all our younger years

There was only you and me

We were young and wild and free

Now nothing can take you away from me

We've been down that road before

But that's over now

You keep me coming back for more

Baby you're all that I want

When you're lying here in my arms

I'm finding it hard to believe

We're in heaven

And love is all that I need

And I found it there in your heart

It isn't too hard to see

We're in heaven

Oh, once in your life you find someone

Who will turn your world around

Bring you up when you're feeling down

Now, nothing could change what you mean to me

There's a lot that I could say

But just hold me now

Cause our love will light the way

And Baby you're all that I want

When you're lying here in my arms

I'm finding it hard to believe

We're in heaven

And love is all that I need

And I found it there in your heart

It isn't too hard to see

We're in heaven

I've ben waiting for so long

For something to arrive

For love to come along

Now our dreams are coming true

Through the good times and the bad

I'll be standing there by you

Thought it was time to resurrect this thread:

Hello (Turn Your Radio On) by Shakespear's Sister

Woke up this morning and the streets were full of cars

All bright and shiny like they'd just arrived from Mars

And as I stumbled through last nights drunken debris

The paperboy screamed out the headlines in the street

Another war and now the pound is looking weak

And tell me have you read about the latest freak?

We're bingo numbers and our names are obsolete

Why do I feel bitter when I should be feeling sweet

Hello, hello turn your radio on

Is there anybody out there?

Help me sing my song

La la la life is a strange thing

Just when you think you learned how to use it

It's gone

Woke up this morning and my head was in a daze

A brave new world has dawned upon the human race

Where words are meaning less and everything's surreal

Gonna have to reach my friends to find out how I feel

And if I taste the honey is it really sweet

And do I eat it with my hands or with my feet?

Does anybody really listen when I speak

Or will I have to say it all again next week

Hello, hello turn your radio on

Is there anybody out there?

Help me sing my song

Hello, hello turn your radio on

Is there anybody out there?

Tell me what went wrong

La la la life is a strange thing

Life is a strange thing

Hello, hello turn your radio on

Is there anybody out there?

Help me sing my song

La la la life is a strange thing

Just when you think you learned how to use it

It's gone
